    I never claim to know what someting will look like, but in my mind, it won't be a very amazing cross. Here is the reason. The white on Calicos is generally situated near the belly on the sides of the snake. Saddles on a Pied are normally situated on the dorsum and higher portion of the sides. With that said, I think that the Calico Pied would look like a normal Pied, with some brighter coloring in the saddles. Now, if the cross ends up on a 10% or less Pied ( the ones that have pattern all the way down the side), then you may be able to get some white in the pattern. On the other hand, with the white on a Calico in the same place as the white on a Spider, the white may be dominant and you may end up with an all white snake with a brightly colored head.

    Those are just my opinions,
